FBI Airtel routing header dated 11/3/76 from SAC Mobile to SAC San Diego regarding the NORJAK case (D.B. Cooper investigation), referencing subject Dick Waller. Body of the memo describing that Dick Waller is a sales supervisor for Lew Childre and Sons, Inc. of Foley, Alabama, responsible for seven western states, with contact details redacted. Lead instruction directing follow-up action by the San Diego Division at Escondido, California; specific investigative task text is not visible/legible on this page. Distribution/copy list for the memo (San Diego, Seattle, Mobile, Portland offices), handwritten routing notations, and an FBI Seattle office file-processing stamp dated NOV 8 1976, plus the archival page identifier DB COOPER-54013.

Typed text is generally clear and legible.
Several fields are redacted with black/white boxes, consistent with (b)(6)/(b)(7)(C) FOIA exemption markings noted in margins.
Handwriting near bottom-left and center-bottom is faint/cursive and largely illegible.
Two large black dots near top of page appear to be microfilm/microfiche reproduction artifacts.
Some overall page skew and light smudging typical of photocopied FBI records.
